About the Item

Primary Colour Series-Jay and Butterflies is one of Shizico Yi's latest projects, inspired by Japanese woodblock Print and the a nod to calligraphy tradition. The series is a continuation of her "Sunlit Series" where Shizico develop her visual language, with and around the colour of yellow: it's an exploration of the healing power of yellow and the celebration of the sun light which bring much needed warmth after the long cold winter in the UK. About Sunlit series Shizico Yi embarked upon an odyssey in summer 2023 to create a series of plein air paintings. "Sunlit Series" meticulously crafted on all mediums, gold leaf gilding on her brushstrokes captured within a restrained palette of yellow, and mono palettes for each painting. With strokes of gold, ink, gesso and acrylic, she orchestrates a visual symphony. Each painting within this series aims to negotiate an unique facet, where the golden hues engage in a dialogue with the layers of images inspired by her garden and the wildlife who come to visit almost daily in Summer and Autumn time. Shizico's unique take on certain painterly materials expressed fully in this painting, gold leaf on dark ink, depths of yellow with grey gesso bring Jay bird to live. She wanted to create a mystic imaginary world of light through the layering of the mono tone of colours. The interplay of these contrasting elements upon the textured surface of gold leaves and ink adds yet another layer of tactile fascination. This Sunlit Series nestles within her "Golden Period," a profound exploration centred around the captivating hue of yellow. It is a colour she believes having the healing power for those afflicted by grief. The result is a breath-taking testimony to the profound connection between the materials, the subject (the deeper meaning of her garden), and the artist herself. © Shizico Yi About the Artist Shizico Yi is available with GSY Studio or on Official website, just Google : shizico yi Dr. Shizico Yi is a London based artist, working on installations, films and paintings; the documentary nature of her work often concerns about the loss, repetition, the everyday subject and memories .

    Located in London, GB
    The 'Sunlit' series is an exploration of the colour yellow and its healing effect to the ones who were impacted by grief. This is one of the artist, Shizico Yi's personal favourites for its subtle changing of the golden tones when viewing in different time of the day. The pictorial language in this series pays homage to Japanese Woodblock prints. In her latest series, titled 'Prayers,' Shizico employs various type of Dahlias as symbols of peace. Dahlias, which bloom in autumn, brighten up the garden amidst the early winter chill, symbolizing regeneration and hope for life. The name of the painting is a reference to a poem by Du Fu (712-770 AD), one of his poignant poems that portrays the landscape in a war zone in his hometown. After nature reclaims the places where people once lived. As an artist working in the studio, there's a sense of helplessness in the face of such changing time. Through these paintings in Prayer series, Shizico aims to convey her heartfelt prayers in times like these. It's also a form of self-reflection on the role of the artist in society. *Delivery Worldwide, only £18 lowest flat rate shipping charge, guarantee shipping by Royal Mail with End to End International Tracking.
